    Big time players show up for big time games.

    That's all I have to say.

    If Tj doesn't creaking wake up, we aren't going to win this series. We can't expect josh to keep playing like he did in Dallas.

    Don't buy it. Regular season is meaningless and nothing carries over when the playoffs start. You can even see it in individual players who bide their time and turn it up now. The paces changes, teams adjust.

    ...except for the Rockets so far.

    We have witnessed the evolution of Blake Griffin. He truly has evolved this playoffs. Relatively quiet, but he is having a game that superstars do...

    Yes he is dropping 26 at the half on us, but why the fck is everyone else involved...that totally has to do with defense. I may have to give some burn for Papa...because what the heck...we have no answer for the entire team.

    I wouldn't be opposed to trying Dorset on Griffin, but my guess is Blake blows right by him and scores an easy layup/dunk.

    Why was Mchale extended during the year? What happened with Adelman at the end, I forget why he was ousted

    It's crazy how the clippers MAKE open shots! It is truly baffling!

    it's not the coach's fault, Jones has always been soft

    He has not been well defended. Obviously Smith and Jones can't single cover him, so where is the double team? Are we just gonna let him score every time down because apparently McHale either doesn't believe in doubling a really good player or assumes he'll miss at some point due to law of averages? Did he learn nothing from Portland a year ago? He waited so long to make any adjustments in that series that it was already too late.
